Where to start on such a wonderful trip!
We arrived in Santiago about 1 1/2 hrs. late two days before our Nov. 23rd cruise. The airport took about an hour to get through. Warning, do not take any type of fruit, or nuts with you. They will be taken there, possibly with a fine.
Our transfer was arranged by the Hostal Morgan B&B in Valparaiso. We were met outside customs by a wonderful gentlemen in uniform with our name on sign for our pleasant and beautiful drive to Valparaiso. This is the most reasonable of ways to reach Valparaiso without going on the bus.
